What is the change about?
Yahoo! is undergoing an update for the international shopping experience. Going forward, Yahoo! Auctions will be known as JDirectItems Auction and Yahoo! Shopping will become known as JDirectItems Shopping for shoppers outside of Japan.
But not to worry; this won't impact how the platforms function or how you access them.
How does this affect you?
- Same great service: You'll continue to enjoy the same seamless shopping experience and products you love, but with a different name.
- Saved Links: If you have some saved pages that contain Yahoo in the URL, watch out! Those pages may not be accessible after the conversion is complete.
- Search Engines: If you intend to look for JDirectItems Auction in your preferred search engine, you probably won't have as many results as you expect (except for this blog, of course!).
Whether you are a long time user, or you're discovering us for the first time, JDirectItems Auction will offer you exactly what you need, just with a refreshed identity.
When will this happen?
- We will begin by announcing the intended change of JDirectItems Auction to JDirectItems Auction.
- You will see gradual updates to names and logos across the platform, replacing the previous version with the updated one.
- Full transition completed, but this blog will remain for anyone who may have missed the update!
As always, thank you for your continued support and understanding!
